Should Hepatic Cyst In Liver Needs To Be Treated Before Breast Cancer?

I am a 52 year old female.During a scan on my kidneys a subcapsular hepatic cyst was found on my liver.It is not painfull but sometimes uncomfortable. I was told to leave it as long as it does not cause any more pain.In 12 weeks I am having a breast reconstruction after breast cancer, should I get the hepatic cyst removed before?

Welcome to Healthcare magic.
1.Do not worry about you cyst, it will not cause any harm.
2.Concentrate on the breast issue, get regular followup scans for breast/axilla as well as liver for wellbeing.
3.If it is causing discomfort - an aseptic taping can be done, only if it is necessary.
Any thing to ask ? don't hesitate. Thank you.
